Default Protein Shake Recipes that don\'t require a blender

Getting back into this whole exercise thing after finishing off crazy hours at work. Anyway.

This time around I'm going to start mixing whey protein shakes into my diet. Already I can see why there are loads of recipes to make them taste a little better... but unfortunately getting a blender at work is way beyond the level of commitment I want to have. So I'm wondering about interesting things to throw in that I can just shake to stir... yogurt... pre-shredded almonds maybe? Thoughts?

I must be weird because I still like the taste of mine shaken with cold water.

When I'm at gym or on the go, I just use shaker and powder+water.

At home though, my gf got me hooked on a variation of ice+water+half a yogurt+protein+frozen mixed berries or canned pineapple.

Usually I drink it with milk, but if I have to use water, I do what Rootabager does.

I assume you are using the shake as a meal replacment rather than PWO? If so continue to mix with the milk otherwise you want something faster digesting.

i *just* started literally today with the protein shake, today i ate:

6 AM = eggs + cheese on a wrap
8:30 AM = 2 scoops + tablespoon glutamine + cold water
12:00 PM = chili that my coworker made, yum, also a 1/4 seafood salad
2:00 PM = half a chicken / spinach / whole wheat wrap
3:00 PM = the other half of the wrap

plus lots of water that i neglected to mix in here.

should i be mixing with milk?
